              keep in mind this will absorb water and swell if it gets wet. It's basically fine grained particleboard. Might want to consider foamed PVC molding boards instead. This stuff is unfortunately even more flexible but takes primer and paint reasonably well. PVC is normally hard to paint but the surfaces seem to be treated for good adhesion. The material under the smooth skin is finely cellular and will fill with filler primer like Duplicolor high build primer. For cars I'd design things to minimize visible cuts and simply use a plastic compatible spray paint in matte or flat finish. I find that mechanical fasteners along with CA adhesives work well. if you insist on using MDF consider using a textured black truck bed liner paint to finish. It will mask imperfections and is durable; it'll pretty much seal the MDF from water and the textured finish will better match a car interior. Might be a bit rough so experiment with sanding after cure (wait at least a week) followed by a matte topcoat spray. The effect will be closer to vinyl if you knock down the truck bed texture a bit. Make sure the matte topcoat is compatible with the truckbed spray- do a test. Sanding the truckbed spray will lose the deep color so the idea is to darken and even out the color. Instead of another spray paint, you might try black car wax instead. In any case test. It's a matter of what you consider to be good. Some people are happy with pretty crude work while others want it to be indistinguishable from original factory surfaces. The above suggestions assume a utility OEM surface intended to mask wear and dirt. Some cars are now using finer textured surfaces treated to resist soiling and improve durability so in that case you'll need to up your game in terms of surface quality and less texture. A possible micro texture surface is done by painting, letting it flash (partially dry) and misting with the same paint backed off to produce a fine spatter coat. This technique can simulated textured plastic moldings with practice. I used this when making photo ready physical industrial design product models in the olden days before rapid 3D prototyping.

                Yes, but do not use it where the floor will get wet, which will make the moulding swell.

                  My project is seeking certification under LEED for Homes v4, and to earn credit we are looking for composite wood products that meet California Air Resources Board requirements for ultra-low-emitting formaldehyde (ULEF) resins or no-added formaldehyde based resins.

                  The primed MDF meets the formaldehyde level of the California Air Resource Board (CARB 2). It does not qualify for ULEF.

                    I had new cabinets installed and wanted them to extend to the ceiling. I purchased this item and crown moulding so my contractor had what he needed to do the job. Worked well. Only thing I wasn't happy with is some staining or watermarks that were on a few pieces. I hadn't noticed it in the store. I was concerned the primer and paint weren't going to cover it . . or it would bleed through. But, so far it's looking good and the slight "swelling" in that area isn't noticeable.

                      I used these to create the casing around the windows in our newly remodeled house. I like that these come in 8’ sections, which means less waste for 4’ openings. The MDF boards come pre-primed which makes painting them a breeze. They cut easily, without chipping or splitting and the boards are usually very straight.

                      MULTI-Purpose MDF Board
                      This mdf board is good for multi-purposes. I used this to build a large cupcake stand for a client who needed it for a wedding. The priming on it was very good. Be careful when cutting though, you can get jagged edges on the finishing, that would have to be repainted over. Do not use a jigsaw or table saw when cutting, if you prefer to preserve the finish. Overall Excellent product.
